Nandi takes it back to Zakes' humble beginnings
The Grammy Award-winning artist and music producer worked extremely hard for his accolades. Giving him his much-deserved flowers, Nandi Madida stated how Zakes has a deep passion for music and he studied towards a qualification, which birthed the music innovator he is today.
"When you think legacy, icon and like I always say, musical genius, you really do think Zakes Bantwini. It's without gimmicks because he learned and graduated in music, in jazz. A few years later he decided to take a leap and become an artist. He released songs like 'Clap Your Hands' and 'You're Wasting My Time'.

Nandi speaks on Zakes' talent and career plans
The Africa Now Radio on Apple Music 1 presenter said Zakes Bantwini is a musical genius who takes his craft seriously. He has also found a passion for other things, such as education, but he is very good at music.
"Zakes has always been good at reinventing himself. I am a fan of the music. His friends and family all love his music, and we could always see the genius both as a producer and then an artist. He is very fortunate to have such talents. His stage presence is always been something that people also love about him."
Nandi revealed that Zakes Bantwini was accepted to study at Harvard University, but he had to put that on hold because of the pandemic. He gave us a timeless hit, Osama, which further elevated the artist's discography.
"He then reinvented himself once more when he studied and graduated at GIBS [Business School] as an entrepreneur and took on the executive role. Because education is big to Zakes. He became the first artist in South Africa to be head of a&r Sony Music. Again making history. So that was big.
"He was accepted to Harvard University a few years later and was going to do that route and study but he is doing that this year. Unfortunately, COVID-19 happened. He wanted the campus experience, so he put that on hold, so he decided to do what he does best, and that was music. That is when Osama came through."
